Benavidez is a big, big super middleweight. I can't see him wanting to give that weight away and potentially spend the night throwing punches at shadows.
Would be a huge fight for boxing fans but Benavidez isnt know by casuals
Fair assessment and I agree... just love how much it'd wind up canelo fanboys. He should probably retire and go out on a high, proved all there is to prove
Would absolutely love Bud to play the boss move and fight Benevidez and then retire
Can't see that happening. What weight?
Benavidez would have to move back down to 168.
Which he has really struggled to make. His fight with Anthony Yarde could be explosive.
Yeah i don't think it will happen, just saying that it would likely only happen if he moves back down to 168. Realistically i think unless he's going to rematch Canelo for $50-100m then Crawford will probably retire as he has nothing left to do.

Or go the circus route and fight Topuria... Probably not a coincidence that he came out to a Mariachi band playing Topuria's ring walk song in a fight promoted by Dana White
A post car-crash Spence and an over the hill Canelo isn't a legacy.
Both are true world class opponents and he absolutely dismantled them... not giving enough credit there
Canelo was maybe 3 years ago. There's a reason he's been hand picking opponents for a while now.
Spence retired immediately after the fight because he was after that last payday once his body was severely injured.
Crawford great fighter but the idea his legacy is set is way too premature.
You have Beterbiev, Bivol, Ortiz jr, Alimkhanuly, Martinez/Mbilli winner all around waiting. Pick your weight class and let's see.
Why not throw usyk in the mix too?
He has just stepped up 3 weight classes and absolutely dismantled someone regarded as a top 5 p4p boxer by most people. I get it that he probably doesn't have the resume he should have, but he has made light work of everyone he has faced. He is also 2 years older than canelo
If he carries on i think he will go down to 160 and try for 4 times undisputed, but the money fights are not really there as there aren't really any "names" that would have casuals buying the fight

Who has Canelo still in the top 5 pfp after the past two years?
It's a good win but it's not Canelo in his prime.
Usually harder to move back down once you've moved up, so if he wants to defend these belts you've got Bivol/Beterbiev as the guys up there.

No, if he wants to defend the belts against them then they would have to come down to his weight from light-heavyweight.

You're right. I thought Bivol moved down and not Canelo moving up.
Guess it's Mbilli/Martinez in that weight division. Imagine Crawford goes back down for Ortiz jr.

He's 38 in 2 weeks. I don't see why he would bother and once again there's a weight difference to deal with.

Shame Crawford started so late in fighting top opponents.
